How can we design inclusive spaces—physically and virtually—that support neurodiversity?The Disability Justice movement is increasing the recognition and adoption of inclusive spaces and accessible interaction for people who are neurodivergent and on the autism spectrum. It continues, however, to rely largely on individuals to disclose their diagnoses in spaces where they may initially be uncertain of support. In this episode, María Emilia Lasso de la Vega, the Training and Programs Facilitator and Technical Facilitation Manager at Ethos, speaks with Alida about her holistically inclusive approach to taking care of others. She incorporates inclusive design practices to erect both physical and digital spaces that accommodate every person, regardless of where they fall under the neurodiversity umbrella. Learn to meet every person’s unique needs by:<ul><li>Leading with genuine interest to discover the needs of every person in your care</li><li>Considering inclusivity from the start when creating any program</li><li>Incorporating the seven principles of inclusive design</li></ul>Important resources from this episode:<ul><li><a href=' https://universaldesign.ie/about-universal-design/the-7-principles '>The 7 Principles of Universal Design</a></li></ul>Connect with María Emilia: <ul><li>Reach out to María Emilia - <a href='mailto:mariaemilia@ethostalent.com'>mariaemilia@ethostalent.com</a></li><li><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariaemilialdlv/'>Connect with María Emilia </a></li></ul>Connect With Alida:<ul><li><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/alidamw'>Share your feedback on LinkedIn </a></li><li><a href='https://bookshop.org/p/books/cultures-of-belonging-building-inclusive-organizations-that-last-alida-miranda-wolff/17372555?ean=9781400229253'>Order Alida’s book “Cultures of Belonging: Building Inclusive Organizations That Last” and gain exclusive access to bonus content! </a></li><li><a href='https://alidamirandawolff.com/'>Learn more about Alida Miranda-Wolff </a></li></ul>Advocate for underrepresented and underserved groups in organizations with Ethos -<a href='https://www.ethostalent.com/'> https://www.ethostalent.com/</a>
